I was a long time fan of 10mm but never found a pistol I could shoot well enough so I ended up with a 9mm I shoot much better. Issue Iíve got now is I feel carrying a 9mm around doesnít give me much of a shot against a pig, assume 9mm rat shot isnít worth much? So convince me I donít need another pistol or make suggestions on what would make more sense?

Couple years ago I shot a decent size Boar with my crossbow right at dark. Since light was fading fast I got out and trailed him right away. When I walked up on him he was in some dense underbrush and still very much alive. Only way out of there was the way I came in. When he got up I put 2 rounds of PDX1 from a 380 in him and it was lights out. If a 380 can do it I know a 9mm can.

Generally, my Ruger GP-100 .357 revolver goes with me because I shoot it far better than any other gun I own. This is especially true as the distance increases. More rounds is better, but I have not needed more than six for that purpose - yet.

I'm a big believer in carrying what you are very proficient with.

Gotta get me one of those. Haven't had the itch for another firearm for years, but that thing always catches my attention.
